Can a plant-based diet reduce pain from endometriosis?
The Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine is recruiting participants in the Washington, D.C., area for a 12-week research study. This study will explore the effect of a low-fat, plant-based diet on symptoms of endometriosis including pain and inflammation.
Join this no-cost research study to see if a change in nutrition can reduce endometriosis-related pain and improve quality of life!
Weekly virtual Zoom meetings will be hosted by our multidisciplinary clinical research team. Qualified participants randomly assigned to the plant-based diet group will receive:
- Study-related online group support sessions each week
- A one-on-one consultation with a dietitian
- Lab tests to check specific study-related health measures
- Cooking demonstrations
- Nutrition and meal planning education
If you have been diagnosed with endometriosis, live in the Washington, D.C. area, and are not currently following a low-fat, plant-based diet, please fill out the interest survey and one of our research coordinators will contact you!
Learn more and find out if you qualify to participate at PCRM.org/Endometriosis or 202-527-7385.
The Physicians Committee is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, headquartered in Washington, DC. We are dedicated to saving and improving human and animal lives through plant-based diets and ethical and effective scientific research.

For many remote workers, a messy home is distracting.
You’re getting pulled into meetings, and your unread emails keep ticking up. But you can’t focus because pet hair tumbleweeds keep floating across the floor, your desk has a fine layer of dust and you keep your video off in meetings so no one sees the chaos behind you.
It’s no secret a dirty home is distracting and even adds stress to your life. And who has the energy to clean after work? That’s why it’s smart to enlist the help of professionals, like Well-Paid Maids.
